A Privilege To Play For Nazair Jones

Posted Sep 10, 2014
The site of Nazair Jones running sprints after a recent North Carolina practice may not seem like a big deal. In fact, to Jones it isn't. He is just doing what the rest of his teammates do at the conclusion of practice. The fact that Jones is running at all, at a UNC practice, a part of the Tar Heels football program, is amazing if you know the journey of the 6-foot-5, 280-pound redshirt freshman defensive tackle.
